Spousal Support

Oklahoma is a little different from other states in terms of spousal support. In Oklahoma, there are no statutory guidelines for support and no presumption that the parties can expect support to maintain a standard of living similar to the one they enjoyed during the marriage. To receive spousal support in Oklahoma, the party seeking support needs to file a petition and show legitimate need for support.

Spousal Support Representation

The alimony laws in Oklahoma are problematic in a number of ways. Because the state does not have the same statutory guidelines as many other states, it is difficult to gauge how a case will play out. Each judge has tremendous leeway, so two very similar cases can result in thousands of dollars’ difference in their support judgments, depending on which judge the parties happen to get for their cases. With this kind of uncertainty, it is critical to work with a Tulsa attorney who is thoroughly experienced and can help guide you throughout the process.
